Activists Occupy Former Turkish Consulate in Frankfurt to Protest Syria Policies

The occupation highlighted opposition to Turkish military actions in northern Syria and called for an end to arms sales to Turkey.

Sixteen activists occupied the roof of the former Turkish consulate in Frankfurt, protesting under the slogan 'Besetzen gegen Besatzung' (Occupy Against Occupation).
The protest aimed to show solidarity with Kurdish self-administration regions in northern and eastern Syria and to condemn Turkey's military actions in the area.
The activists demanded an end to arms sales to Turkey and called for broader international support for Kurdish regions in Syria.
The police initially attempted to clear the building but withdrew due to safety concerns after activists damaged parts of the scaffolding.
By Saturday evening, the activists voluntarily left the building; three were arrested, and all participants now face charges of trespassing.
